Editor, Well said, we can never attain quality education with a curriculum that doesn’t serve African interests and priorities. Quality to me is serving a purpose, In this case we are serving the west, and NOT of any quality to us.
Editor,Well said, we can never attain quality education with a curriculum that doesn’t serve African interests and priorities. Quality to me is serving a purpose, In this case we are serving the west, and NOT of any quality to us. This is why African countries have a few graduates, which is a challenge of course but still not able to acquire jobs, they are either unemployed or underemployed. Lets train skilled people, NOT "Qualified” with just papers to present. In the recent past, we could go to school and immediately get a job upon completion. This puts us at a high risk of our children dropping out of school. But the issue here is not that we don’t have enough vacancies but the system of education in Africa that trains only job seekers and in wrong/irrelevant fields.John M, Kigali(Reaction to the story, ‘It is time to revamp our educational system (part 1)’, The New Times, September 26)
